What you think is a permanent obstacle is actually just a temporary hiccup 💡 In this episode, I'm getting real about the mental traps we fall into when facing setbacks in business, fitness, and life. After injuring my back on what was supposed to be a simple stretching session, I found myself spiraling into thoughts of long-term failure – only to be deadlifting 315 pounds just a few days later. I break down how easily we can turn minor hiccups into perceived permanent obstacles, and why this mental shift is the biggest thing holding you back from achieving your goals. The truth is, most problems that feel overwhelming can be solved in just 2-3 days with the right guidance and perspective shift. If you're struggling to grow your online fitness business and feeling stuck, this episode will challenge you to reconsider whether you're actually facing a brick wall or just experiencing a temporary hiccup that proper mentorship could quickly resolve. 🔥 Top Quotes: "I believe that we can't solve the problem from the same mind that created it.” (4:54) "The reason that most people don't make it is that they never get an outside opinion. And they're just doing everything themselves." (5:31) "Your biggest adversity, the thing that you were struggling the most with, the thing that you are having a hard time overcoming is likely nothing more than a minor hiccup."

Stop changing what's working! The #1 mistake that keeps coaches stuck in their business 🤦‍♂️ In this episode, I'm going straight at the biggest problem I see with online fitness coaches who are actually getting results. Instead of doubling down on what's working, they start overthinking and trying to change their strategy. I jump on a coaching call with my 10K Mastermind clients and drop some serious truth bombs about content authenticity, client acquisition, and the psychology of scaling your business. From sharing your real opinions to properly qualifying leads, I break down exactly how to avoid spreading yourself too thin. If you've been signing clients but still find yourself wanting to "switch things up," this episode will be the wake-up call you need. Because the path to 6-figures isn't about finding new strategies – it's about mastering the fundamentals that are already working. 💰 Top Quotes: "You don't sign more clients in two days by accident. Stop looking to change things. Just keep doing what you're doing." (4:50) "If you chase too many rabbits, you'll get no rabbits.” (7:31) "If you want the authentic version of you to come through on social media, then you need to start sharing that. Your personality's coming out in your content, but I also know that you scripted all these videos. I want to know your actual opinion on stuff."

Why chasing gurus and mentors might be the exact reason you're stuck right now 🧠 In this episode, I'm calling out the entire personal development industry – including myself – for a toxic mindset that's keeping you trapped in someone else's version of success. Too many of us are looking outside ourselves for answers that can only be found within, and it's time for a reality check. The truth is, nobody has it all figured out. Not me, not your favorite influencer, not the coach with the perfect feed – we're all just doing our best to navigate this journey. Yet we keep buying into the idea that someone else holds the magical blueprint to our success when the certainty you're searching for has been inside you all along. What if in your pursuit of becoming someone else's definition of successful, you've completely lost touch with what YOU actually want? What if the constant guru-hopping and program-switching is the very thing preventing you from accessing your own inner wisdom? I'm challenging you to filter all advice (including mine) through one simple question: does this align with what I truly want to create? Top Quotes: "The answer to all of your problems, the solution to everything that you're looking for, is not outside of you, it's inside of you.” (03:18) "Certainty in direction is, in my opinion, insecurity masked as confidence." (06:45) "What if in the pursuit of hiring mentors and chasing gurus and taking information and listening to advice... you forget who you really are? In the process of chasing the person that you would like to become, you forget what got you started in the first place."

5 secrets to a fully booked sales calendar: why most fitness coaches stay broke while others are drowning in leads 📱 In this episode, I'm breaking down the exact five-step formula that separates fully booked coaches from those who are constantly scrambling for their next client. It doesn't matter if you're at 10 followers or 100K – these principles are what's filling calendars for my most successful clients right now. You'll learn why most coaches waste time with ineffective content strategies when they should be focusing on these five critical elements. I'll show you how to establish unshakeable authority in your niche, create parasocial relationships with your audience, leverage social proof that actually converts, build a growing audience through strategic ads, and implement the perfect DM process to turn followers into clients. I'm giving you the step-by-step playbook that my 7-figure clients are using to book more calls than they can handle. Plus, I'll hand you my exact DM script that's generating millions in revenue across our coaching businesses. Top Quotes: "Great marketing is saying the same thing a hundred different ways. Social proof content gets the least amount of views, but the most amount of clients." (20:21) "If you don't have a growing audience, you're going to be speaking to the same crowd over and over again." (01:21) "Somebody's a referral. Again, treat it a little bit differently. The reason it should be treated a little bit differently is because your client is going to vouch for you. So you already know they're pre-sold."

Your kids are watching everything: are you someone they'll want to be like? 👀 In this episode, Kirsten and I dive deep into the reality that your children are watching, learning, and internalizing everything you do – not just what you say. We share a powerful story about one of the teens from our Young and Ambitious mentorship program who's already built a $10,000/month business because he had the right examples to follow. The truth is, as parents, we're either becoming someone our kids want to emulate or someone they'll rebel against. If you're self-sacrificing to the point of losing your health, happiness, and identity, what message are you really sending? Too many parents are passing down generational traumas and limiting beliefs without ever taking responsibility for their own healing. Whether you have kids now or plan to in the future, this conversation will challenge you to look at parenting from a completely different angle. It's not about being perfect - it's about being someone your child can look up to instead of searching for heroes elsewhere. Top Quotes: "Do I want my kid to look up to someone else, or do I want my kid to look up to me? Do I want my kid to look at men on TV and be like, 'Wow, I wish I could be like him,' or do I want my kid to look up to me and be like, 'My dad's a superhero'?" (07:09) "You cannot express something you do not possess. And I think a lot of people, because you never fully deal with your own shit, because you're still blaming your past, you end up trying to pass down those habits, those character traits, those beliefs to the next generation." (10:33) "We don't see the world as it is. We see the world as we are. If you find parenting incredibly hard, you feel overworked, you feel overwhelmed, you wake up in the morning with instant anxiety and stress about the day ahead, when you walk into the world, what are you gonna get? You're gonna get more anxiety, you're gonna get more stress."

Top Quotes: "Great marketing is about finding a hundred different ways of saying the same thing." (02:11) "When your audience grows, the game changes.” (16:52) "I don't change things that are working.

Are you operating from fear or love? The hidden reason why some succeed while others fail 🔥 In this episode, I'm exposing the real difference between people who achieve massive success and those who keep spinning their wheels. It's not about strategies, blueprints, or even work ethic - it's about where you're operating from on a daily basis. Two people can follow the exact same plan but get completely different results. Why? Because one is coming from a place of fear, while the other is coming from a place of love. Most people try to change their results by focusing on external circumstances - posting more content, sending more DMs, working longer hours. But the truth is, your outer world is just a reflection of your inner world. Your morning routine isn't enough. Those 30 minutes of affirmations won't override the 15.5 hours you spend secretly doubting yourself, harboring resentment, or living in fear. It's time to do the deep inner work - to unbecoming who you thought you were and remembering who you truly are. When you operate from a place of love, abundance naturally follows. Top Quotes: "You cannot change your default emotional state by doing 30 minutes of affirmations per day. You're trying to undo 25 to 30 to 40 years of trauma with 30 minutes of affirmations per day. That's fucking insane." (06:41) "The world without is a reflection of the world within, which is why Cole and I are able to stand here and speak greatness into you guys because we have seen it in ourselves, and so it's easy for me to see it in you." (17:00) "This isn't about becoming, it's about unbecoming. Why? Because when you came out as a baby, you didn't speak any language. You just came out as a baby, fresh slate... You came out as a blank slate. Remember when you were a kid and you didn't have any fear?"

Are you stuck in the hustle trap? Why the most successful online coaches are changing their approach 🔥 In this episode, I'm getting raw about a major shift in how I'm approaching life and business. For years, I've been the poster child for the grind - working 14-hour days, always being available to clients, and making my business the center of my entire existence. But I've realized something profound: even after hitting million-dollar months back-to-back-to-back, the quality of my life wasn't improving. I was making bank but missing out on actually LIVING. I'd lost that childlike ability to enjoy simple things like playing football, golfing, or just having fun without it being tied to work. The truth is, the entrepreneurial game never ends. There's always another goal, another milestone, another achievement. If you're waiting to enjoy life "once you make it," you'll be waiting forever. So I'm making a radical change - and challenging you to do the same. Because what's the point of building a successful fitness business if you're not actually experiencing the freedom it's meant to provide? 🤔 Top Quotes: "If you're an entrepreneur, the game literally never ends... so why not enjoy yourself along the way?" (14:34) "I'm starting to realize that I want to enjoy the journey while I'm on it... instead of holding off until the end." (13:41) "If you're an entrepreneur, the game literally never ends. If you're a mom, the game literally never ends. If you have your own business, the game never ends..."

From self-doubt to unstoppable: this coach reveals how he finally broke through after months of self-sabotage 🔥 In this episode, I sit down with my client Max who went from having just 100 Instagram followers to consistently hitting $6.5K months and now traveling the world living his dream. But his journey wasn't the overnight success story you might expect. For the first 7-8 months in my program, Max was stuck in a cycle of self-sabotage - getting momentum for a month, then falling off for two. He'd stop asking questions, wouldn't attend coaching calls, and constantly let limiting beliefs derail his progress. The crazy part? He finally reveals what flipped the switch for him. We dive deep into the dangerous mindset trap of becoming "the biggest fish in a small pond" and why you need to constantly seek environments that challenge you to grow. The truth is, there are three levels to mindset development, and most coaches never make it past level two - but that third level is where the real magic happens. 🚀 Top Quotes: "You will not fucking fail if you don't quit, or if you quit, that's the only way you're ever gonna fail." (17:49) "I don't want to be the king of a small pond, I want to be the fucking king of the ocean." (14:05) "Level three, which I told you you need to get to, is I'm so fucking confident I'm going to be successful that nothing will fucking stop me.
